Chapter Three
Luke and Selena
Song: One Less Lonely Girl by Justin Bieber
It pains me soo much to write this, because Luke is one of my favorites to marry in Tree of Tranquility, but he was requested, therefore I must write. Sigh. Enjoy!
Luke's POV
I walk with my best friend in the entire world down the isle. She's in a beautiful white gown. She's getting married today. I have never been so happy for her. I've never seen her so happy. She has been all smiles since Chase gave her the blue feather. I was honored when she asked me to walk down the isle on this special day. She told me I would need practice for when I get married. She thinks that my crush, the insanely beautiful Selena, the exotic dancer from Toucan Island, and I will get married someday.
I hand Akari off to her to-be husband, and take my seat. I thank goddess that Selena is sitting next to me. I look at her. I knew she would be here. Everyone is good friends with Akari, so naturally the whole island showed up for her wedding.
Surprisingly, Selena looks at me, smiling.
"Jealous that its not you, she's exchanging rings with?" She whispers to me. Se talked to me! Yes!
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
One less lonely girl
"Never. Marrying her would be like marrying my sister." Which is exactly what it would be like, marrying Akari. I look back at Selena, who's looking at me with a smile.
How many promises be honest girl
How many tears you let hit the floor?
"I'm glad to hear that." She says, under her breath. I smile.
"And why would that be?" I slide a little closer to her. I catch her blush a little. This makes me smile even more. I watch Akari and Chase look at each other. Its easy to see sparks between them. They are your typical love story. Boy meets girl, they fall in love, the universe won't let them be together, they find a way to ignore fate, and get married. I think the 'universe won't let them be together' thing was really just a bad fight they had. Oh well. They really are in love. I remember every once in a while that rumors would start that Akari and I were dating. Chase would get jealous, and I would laugh it off with Akari. You just got to let the rumor mill run its course, and all the pathetic drama will end, sooner or later, and most of the time its sooner.
"'Cause I kinda like you,"
Saw so many pretty faces before I saw you
Now all I see is you
"Everyone likes me," I say, in a cocky way. She rolls her eyes playfully.
One less lonely girl
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
"No, I mean, I kinda like you. Really, really like you. A lot. And I know this day is supposed to be all about Akari and Chase, but I just couldn't hold it in any more." My heart feels like it could burst. I smile, and out my arm around her.
"You, my friend, have very good taste." I say, making her chuckle. A few people notice. Akari doesn't, being so wrapped up in Chase. A few days ago, she told me she couldn't wait to have kids with him. Thats always been one of her biggest dreams; starting a family. She wants a girl who looks just like Chase, and a boy who looks just like her. I told her that the kids are gonna look opposite from her dream. A little mini-Chase, and a little mini-Akari.
"I've learned what I want and what I don't want. And you're what I want," She says, looking at me with her beautiful eyes.
How many torn photographs are you taping back
Tell me that you couldn't see an open door
But no more, if you let me inside your world
There'll be one less lonely girl
"And your the one I want," I whisper to her. Her eyes widen. I hear the church bells sing, and I feel Akari's eyes on me. I look over to her, and give her the thumbs up sign, as she walks down the isle with her new husband. Her smile is big, and Chase's smile is even bigger if possible.
And when your mine, in this world
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
Selena and I both get up, and take one of the bags of rice Hamilton is giving out. I pelt the newlyweds with rice, and Selena tries but misses. She and I laugh. Chase picks up Akari bridal style, and they make their way to her ranch. We're all laughing and having a great time.
I fix up your broken heart
I can give you a brand new start
"I love you." I say to Selena.
"I love you too." I kiss her.
There's gonna be one less lonely girl
One year later...
I look into her eyes.
"You may now kiss the bride.
I do as I'm told, and I kiss the insanely beautiful dancer. I pick her up bridal style, and walk out of the church, where all the rice throwers are pelting us. I wonder, who supplies all the rice? I watch Akari laugh with her husband, and brand new baby girl, only a week old. Selena and I are the god-parents. Jane, the baby's name, has Chase's eyes and hair. Just what Akari wanted. I kiss my bride, and I carry her to the house I built on my own, where we will live for the rest of our lives.
